use.desc: Make `native-extensions` flag global

Make the `native-extensions` flag global.  It is used in 15 Python
packages to enable building optional C extensions, though the global
description also allows for other "native" and "pure" languages.

In 9 cases, the flag description explicitly mentions "speedups", so this
is the primary case used in global description.  There is one case
of the extension providing extra features, and the remaining cases
do not explain its role.
